Hasbro Goldar


From the Mighty Morphine Power Rangers, here's the villain Goldar. A golden, winged monster with purple face and wings. He's nicely painted and sculpted and looks very cool.






He comes with 2 pairs of hands (holding and one with left fist and right open). He also has a sword and a purple swirling effect for it that's a soft plastic. His wings also come separate and attach to his back via pegs. The holding hands have a tight grip, so the sword fits snuggly in them.






He's articulated on his neck, his wings have hinges where they clip near the back and hinges halfway through where can flip upward and a bit inward. He's also articulated at the shoulders, elbows, hinges at the wrists, upper torso, thighs, knees and ankles. Due to the sculpt, the ankles can't move too far forward. His upper torso and thighs are a bit loose, and due to weight of his wings, it takes some work to get him to stand on his own. His armor pieces around his waist and tail in the back are soft plastic, so you can get him to sit.






The sculpt and paint is really nice, with darker highlights throughout his armor. His tail and braids around his head are detailed very nicely, and the black feathers on his wings are individually sculpted and look quite stunning. There is a lot of intricate patterns throughout his armor that really stand out and pop. Hasbro put a lot of work into making Goldar look really great.




Hasbro did a good job with this figure. Despite the loose thighs and torso, he still looks great and is fun to pose. For the price he goes for (about $18), he makes a good addition to your collection.

Help Me… I’m Possessed (1974) / #Missingcouple (2024)

I've watched some weird, obscure horror movies throughout my life. I can now add this lurid 1974 schlockfest to that growing list. In a castle in the desert, Dr. Arthur Blackwood runs a sanitarium filled with mentally disturbed patients (as well as staff). He claims to be working on finding a way to cure people of any violent tendencies they have, and brags about his younger sister, innocent, child-like Melanie, as evidence that his treatment works. When she was a child, their parents had to keep her locked up and chained in the basement, to control her violent fits. Now that he's cured her, Arthur has his wife Diane come to the castle to meet Melanie, so that they can be one big, happy family. Diane begins to grow suspicious that something is amiss after a Sheriff shows up investigating the murder of 2 local teens, and sets about on her own investigation, hoping to uncover the sinister secrets that she feels her husband is hiding. Help Me... I'm Possessed is an outrageous,...

Titanic Creations Yongary 1967

This figure was released in late December, and I got it about 2 days before the New Year, so I'm counting it as a 2025 release. It is the Titanic Creations version of the Korean kaiju Yongary, Monster From The Deep. The film was released in 1967 as a Godzilla ripoff, with several ideas copied from the Gamera series, such as his tusks, his ability to fire a stream of flames from his mouth, and even firing a laser beam from his horn, similar to the slicing one used by Gyaos. The film is pretty goofy, but Yongary, like most of those Asian monsters, was pretty cool (to me, at least), so I was psyched that someone finally made a figure of this lesser known kaiju. When Titanic Creations put it up for pre-order, they announced a series of tiers, where they would add accessories when a certain number of orders were met. Enough fans ordered him, so that Yongary ended up with a shit ton of stuff, making him absolutely worth the price. In addition to the kaiju, you get a flame breath effect, ...

RicSan Custom Toys Kyōrū Kaiju (Titanosaurus)

My latest kaiju figure purchase is the Titanosaurus made by Ricsan Custom Toys. I own and love the Varan & Gabara, so of course I had to preorder this one when it was available. He was delivered earlier this week. This kaiju hails from the last Godzilla film of the Showa era, 1975's Terror of Mechagodzilla. The Black Hole aliens are back, rebuilding their robot in another effort to take over the planet. They enlist the help of an ostracized Earth scientist named Mafune and his daughter Katsura, who are able to control an aquatic dinosaur named Titanosaurus. They plan to use both kaiju and mecha to attack Japan. Titano was a cool monster, with his tail that opened into a fish fin, and he would use it to create whirlpools in the sea, and high winds on land. I'm hoping that S.H. Monsterarts makes one for the 50th anniversary of the film, but when I saw this Ricsan Custom version, I couldn't pass it up. Titanosaurus (called the Kyōrū Kaiju), comes in a white box, with its n...
